The Vegan Business Tribe Podcast episode 132
Overcoming founder fatigue
How to win back your motivation as a vegan entrepreneur. ‘Founder fatigue’ can happen in any business, but especially if you have a high emotional investment in your business’s cause. You still love your business, you still believe in your mission, but you’re tired, stressed and burnt out.
Left unchecked, founder fatigue will kill your business. You’ll stop showing up. You’ll stop going out and looking for opportunities. You will find yourself, subconsciously, sabotaging your own business.
But all is not lost! In this episode, David brings you his top 5 tips for reinvigorating your enthusiasm for your business and re-connecting with your mission
Top five take-aways from this episode:
1. Rediscover your ‘why’. Reconnect with the reason you started your vegan business in the first place which might mean connecting with the vegan cause at a deeper level.
2. Automate, delegate of get rid of the things that that wear you down. That might be using apps, that might be delegating to others, or just stopping doing the things you’ve always done.
3. Build your tribe around you. Connect with people who understand the unique challenges you face as a vegan business owner.
4. Set a clear goal and make a plan to achieve it. Nothing wears you out like running on the spot so set your SMART GOALS and recapture that early ‘start up’ passion and motivation.
5. Practice self-care. That doesn’t have to mean going and sitting on top of a mountain, but work self-care into your routine.
